An antenna joint for use in magnetic resonance reception wherein two portions of conductor or foil materials are secured to a splice plate. Electronic components are connected to the conductor materials over the splice plate which provides stress relief for the components. The splice plate can be of various geometric configurations and can have openings to accommodate the components.

Antenna joint for surface coils provided with a strain relief flexture

An electronic circuit module includes a smaller than normal size printed wire board and an adaptor plate to fit the printed wire board into a slot of a rack made for normal size modules. A diverter fixed to the adaptor plate funnels cooling air over the adaptor plate to the printed wire board and a cover contains the air flow next to the adaptor plate and printed wire board. A cover is provided for blocking off empty slots of the rack from air flow and a dummy module is positioned to separate modules from any adjacent empty space so as to assure and adequate supply of cooling air to the electronic circuit components of the modules.
